The sale of land that has been granted or claimed first
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh! If a person is granted a piece of land, or if he claims it first, he has the strongest right to it. But is it permissible for him to sell it or not?
Answer:
You heard the answer that Allah does not grant him ownership of it for sale unless he revives it by building on it, digging a well in it, or planting in it. As for mere improvement or merely laying out stones, that does not give him ownership of it.
